@jimmy and Jay….children arive at their own conclusions…are either of you in any way like your grandparents?

Lauren and many others like her are living proof that the media and education system will fail to bring Marxism to fruition…and your children will be assimilated into the capitalist system….resistance is futile…..:-)

And we will train them to be janissaries who utterly despise you…..MUHUHAHAHAHAH!!! MUHUHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I think it’s my duty as a parent to inform them of logic and science and in addition to the man living in the sky and fairy tales like you tell your children. If through being properly informed in all regards, they still want to believe in a God and The Bible, then that’s fine – but fortunately they are too smart for that.

“… to have had knowledge of a woman before the twentieth year they (the Germans) reckon among the most disgraceful acts" — Julius Caesar, the Gallic Wars (1st century B.C.)

Our post-Industrial ancestors live lives that afford them muchless margin of error than our own today; where we are free to believe and engage in all kinds of nonsense, even to the point of death (eg. overdose), and walk away from it without much consequence. The notion that they were benighted and superstitious, simply doesn’t hold water.

Personally, I tend to distinguish happiness from contentment. Happiness I attribute to the emotions. And emotions are fickle. They come and they go, as certainly as fair or foul weather. One cannot always be “happy” anymore than the weather can always be fair. Such is nature. Contentedness on the other hand … one can be in a world of shit, surrounded by misery, and know in one’s heart that, given the hand dealt, there is no place they’d rather be.

“This is the service a vassal owes his Lord:
To suffer hardships, endure great heat and cold,
And in battle to lose both hair and hide.
In his Lord’s service a man must suffer pain,
Bitterest cold and burning heat endure;
He must be willing to lose his flesh and blood.”

“O blind your eyes and break your heart and hack your hand away,
And lose your love and shave your head; but do not go to stay
At the little place in What’sitsname where folks are rich and clever;
The golden and the goodly house, where things grow worse for ever;
There are things you need not know of, though you live and die in vain,
There are souls more sick of pleasure than you are sick of pain;
There is a game of April Fool that’s played behind its door,
Where the fool remains for ever and the April comes no more,
Where the splendour of the daylight grows drearier than the dark,
And life droops like a vulture that once was such a lark:
And that is the Blue Devil that once was the Blue Bird;
For the Devil is a gentleman, and doesn’t keep his word.”

Jay Kelly. You’re comment is a perfect example of how infuriatingly obtuse and foreign to reason the knee-jerk left has become. How can you conflate the case Lauren Southen makes for a return to the hallmarks of civil virtue with racism and hate? You’re doing some creative math there — tradition = racism + hate, but if tagging an overused and hackneyed label feeds the illusion of your own moral superiority then it absolves you from actually doing the hard work of engaging in a real debate. I don’t know about you, but as a parent of a young child myself, I don’t want her growing up in the relativistic mess that those of your ilk have created.

In a generational obsession to “special” and “different” Millennials have become conventional conformists in this pursuit where traditionalists swim out of the mainstream. The problem in choosing a life direction and why so many people, not just millennials, are so unhappy/unfulfilled is as, Lauren has alluded to, people have adopted narrow political ideologies which fail to give meaning to life, just spurious vindication for choice- instead of studying and adopting a philosophy, which seeks to aid the search for truth and happiness.

I think classic education would be wasted on Millennials, The depth of character/intellect is not there.

“Tradition” for Millennials is Redbull,twitter and Michael Jackson,, anyone who would place any social/cultural/traditional value in such shallow introversive modality is incapable of understanding cultural tradition.

Vice is the website that tried to suppress the vote on election day with false narrative that Clinton was winning.

The problem with Millennial, and Gen Xers and some Boomers is the embrace of “personal truth”. Truth is what we “feel” it is. So what may be true to Obama, or true to me, might not be truth to Trudeau. The most recent example is from a friend on facebook who says because the US defined what Fidel was, we can’t trust that definition, so Trudeau’s view is just as acceptable. Basically any “facts” on Fidel are nullified by her bigotry against the US.

Well come back hope you had a wonderful break but it looks like you didn’t get much sun. These kids have a lot to learn life isn’t free and it takes a lot of work to be successfull in life BUT the joy is trying.
